the luxury of abstraction

i live in a world of many many options or conversely of very few constraints. as a result decisions can be made at the most theoretical level and with utmost care for long term implication, philosophical uncertainties and the fine distinction between not just "right" and "wrong" but "good"and "best."

most lives are constrained by relationships or finances or systems of inequality. by and large i do not feel these constraints (although to varying degrees they do exist for me).

so not really confronted with what so many call reality i'm left to wander in the abstract.

no wonder...
